The HSE says those affected were among a number of family parties that were supplied with food prepared at the pub.

The venue has been closed while the HSE and the Food Safety Authority carry out an investigation.

To date, five people have been admitted to hospital and 16 people have been confirmed as suffering from Salmonella, while a woman in her 50s also died from suspected food poisoning.
